[QUOTE="Mengu, post: 5640836, member: 65726"] You can certainly "hold off" your immediate action until you want to use it, unless the power specifically narrows your options. The part that sees some table variation, is when exactly do you use the power... In some groups, you have to declare you're using an interrupt the moment someone decides to attack you. In some groups, you wait to hear if they hit you and by how much. In some groups you also get to hear how much damage they do and what conditions they inflict before using the interrupt. I'm in the last camp. When I DM, I rattle off everything at the same time, "31 vs AC, take 28 poison damage, you're slowed and taking ongoing 10 poison damage, save ends both, don't forget you're in his gas aura and have vulnerable 5 poison on top of that." Then the sorcerer says "no thank you, immediate interrupt, I pop Sudden Scales putting me at AC 33, and that misses." [/QUOTE]
